Hegemonius: No Disputations on New Revelations

Hegemonius: No Disputations on New Revelations

It is an unknown author which we read to today, concerning the authority for Christian teaching:

Those who set up some new teaching have a way of twisting the Scriptures to make them fit whatever it is they want them to say. The apostolic word says, “If anyone preaches any gospel to you other than that which you have received, let him be anathema.” Therefore, a disciple of Christ should accept no new teaching beyond what has once been committed to us by the Apostles. (Disputation of Archelus and Manes . 40, ACD vol. 1 p21)
